What is Moonlight|3D?

/ // // // // // // /

2002-10-12

Moonlight|3D is a free software modeller and renderer for 3D scenes
with an intuitive GUI and powerful editing capabilities.
This effort is based on the Moonlight Atelier sources (version 0.5.3) from 1998,
which - unfortunately - was the last sourcecode release. Early 1999
the original author released a newer version (0.9.2) which has texture
mapping and other important features, but he never released the source
(he didn't need to).
The development of Moonlight|3D aims for the features of 0.9.2 but also wants to
go beyond that: the goal is to have a powerful 3d editing tool with animation
capabilities which is still easy to handle for someone new to 3d modelling.

What about this site?

This site is planned to be the host of
the development of Moonlight|3D. While
www.moonlight3d.net does a great job at
serving the userbase of moonlight, I
think it's not appropriate to "pollute"
their forum with too technical discussions.
That said, I'd like to point out that of course
everybody is welcome here.

this site looks a bit more resonable, does it?
well, I'm still willing to give this stuff up if someone
else wants to be responsible for the development site
